The Theoretical and Practical Course on Molecular Approaches for in situ Biodegradation
sponsored by The United States - European Commission Task Force on Biotechnology Research
The United States - European Commission Task Force on Biotechnology Research is sponsoring a Theoretical and Practical Course on Molecular Approaches for in situ Biodegradation to be held at the University of Oklahoma, Norman, OK, from May 24th to June 7th, 2009. The course is open to senior graduate students and junior postdoctoral fellows who have training in molecular microbiology and/or microbial ecology and who want to apply those skills to solving environmental problems. The course is designed to provide hands-on experience in modern, up-to-date biotechnological methods for the analysis of microbes and their activities in the remediation of pollutants in the environment. The course is limited to 12 US and 12 EU students. Directors: Joseph M. Suflita and Kathleen E. Duncan of the University of Oklahoma.
Initial review of applicants will be on March 19, 2009. Financial support, including travel allowance, will be provided for all participants. Applications will only be accepted by electronic submission through this web site only.
